It's happening!

Who would had known, our day one would last forever! Our love is solid and matures everyday. "OUR EVERLASTING DAY ONE!"

Because Derrick and I are committed to leading healthier lives. We spoke on several occasions about climbing Stone Mountain together to kick start our journey. On Thursday, May 18, 2017, Derrick asked me to join him for a hike. FOR THE RECORD, I WAS EXTEREMLY TIRED. THE HIKE WAS CHALLENGING, BUT THE REWARD WAS WORTH THE STRUGGLE. It felt like within 72 hours, my love had planned what most girls dream of their entire lives. Not sure how, but my amazing husband-to-be found a guitarist (Ben). Who willingly hiked up the mountain. He sung an AMAZING song, while Derrick whispered words of love, empowerment, stability, and commitment to my heart… On one knee, he asked SALANDA WILL YOU MARRY ME!!! And with no doubt in my mind and no hesitation, with GREAT PRIDE I SAID YES!!!! As we all know, I am a bad @$$. But, I cried like a baby. Because the man I prayed for, MY GOD DELIEVERED. I will forever be grateful as love is one of GOD’s greatest blessings to us all. Derrick and Salanda Westry 2018.
